Wang Fangfei's home was naturally much smaller than Xiang Ye's current place.
Although this small apartment was also two bedrooms and one living room, it was only about thirty square meters, quite cramped. The current little room was actually Wang Fangfei's closet; maybe after she and Ai Bai got married, they would convert it into a baby's room!
Of course, more likely Ai Bai's family would buy a bigger place for them nearby.
After all, Ai Bai's family was not short of money.
After Xiang Ye came in, he followed Ai Bai to the kitchen, washed his hands, and took the lamb slices, beef slices, and various vegetables they had prepared outside.
At this moment, Wang Fangfei and the girl were completely captivated by Shaoqing.
"Xiang Ye, is this the housewarming gift you brought us?" Wang Fangfei squinted at the little kitten and asked.
"Don't be ridiculous, this is my pet. It's still too small and needs milk every three hours, so I can't keep it at home yet—hence I brought it here. Your gift is that fish."
Xiang Ye rolled his eyes at Wang Fangfei, sat down in a chair, and waved to Shaoqing. Shaoqing immediately abandoned Wang Fangfei and the other girl and ran toward Xiang Ye.
Watching its clumsy little gait, Xiang Ye scooped the kitten into his arms.
Seeing Shaoqing ignore them, Wang Fangfei and the girl sat down at the table sulkily. After sitting, Wang Fangfei did not forget to introduce the girl.
"By the way, let me introduce you. This is Xiao Wanwan, my best friend and confidante. Today, we only invited you two—don't be shy, come on, dig in!"
"Hello."
"Hello."
Hearing the introduction, Xiang Ye and the big-eyed, baby-faced girl nodded politely to greet each other. By this time, the hotpot in the middle was already boiling, and naturally, everyone started to pick up the meat and vegetables to put into the pot.
As two rounds of food disappeared quickly under the hands of the four, the originally slightly awkward atmosphere gradually dissipated.
Sure enough, the dinner table is the easiest place to bring people closer. After two rounds of drinks, conversation began to flow.
Of course, the two sides didn't really share many common topics. Wang Fangfei and Xiao Wanwan mostly talked about which stores had discounts, which shops Ai Bai visited, what clothes or bed sheets or curtains they liked, or which lipstick shades they had ordered online. Xiang Ye and Ai Bai didn't understand any of that…
For straight guys like them, lipsticks, color codes, or clothes were just not their concern. The only thing Ai Bai cared about was fishing.
"I thought you were going to YueJing Lake today."
"Almost did, but the weather was too bad. If the sun had come out, I might have gone. It's no fun wading through mud and puddles." Hearing Ai Bai's explanation, Xiang Ye shook his head. The main reason was that he wasn't sure if YueJing Lake had all the fish.
Right now, Xiang Ye only knew YueJing Lake had mosquitofish but no wheat spikes, some small balu but no whitebait, very few crucian carp, but definitely plenty of grass carp, black carp, silver carp, bighead carp, common carp, and Topmouth Culter.
So, he didn't dare risk going there, just in case there weren't enough species.
"Ah, I'm jealous. I might be busy a while longer because there's still a lot to buy. When I'm done, I'll definitely go fishing there with you!"
Thinking about the giant fish Xiang Ye caught in the lake, Ai Bai was genuinely envious.
Actually, Ai Bai was even more addicted than Xiang Ye. Xiang Ye fished mainly to complete tasks and make money, but Ai Bai fished at a loss, yet he enjoyed it wholeheartedly. That was true love.
"Sure, when you're done, send me WePay, and I'll take you there!" Ai Bai laughed.
"You guys just mentioned YueJing Lake? Are you going camping?"
Just as Ai Bai and Xiang Ye were discussing fishing, Xiao Wanwan suddenly asked.
"No, they're planning to fish. I don't get it—what's so fun about fishing?" Hearing Xiao Wanwan's comment, Wang Fangfei looked at her disdainfully.
"That's my hobby. I don't get why you watch soap operas," Ai Bai shot back, defending himself in front of his friend. Wang Fangfei snorted disdainfully.
That snort spoke volumes to Xiang Ye—mostly meaning: there are outsiders here; wait until they leave.
Sure enough, after Wang Fangfei's snort, Xiang Ye saw Ai Bai start to sweat a little.
"Fishing? I don't know much about that. I have camped at YueJing Lake before. The scenery there is beautiful, but I never saw anyone fishing," Xiao Wanwan said curiously while eating lamb slices.
"There's a small island in the middle of YueJing Lake. You can fish there, but it costs 500 yuan per person per rod," Xiang Ye explained seeing Xiao Wanwan's puzzled look.
"Five hundred yuan per person to fish? Oh my god, you guys must be rich with nowhere to spend your money. For 500 yuan, I could buy so many lipsticks," Xiao Wanwan winced and said in disbelief.
In her mind, fishing meant going to a free riverbank or paying by the Jin at a fish pond.
"Hey, that's just the start. That's lake fishing. Pay-to-fish ponds can charge over a thousand yuan, even thousands for a ticket. Five hundred is actually cheap.
And Xiang Ye—before I knew—he's actually a super expert. He catches hundreds of Jin of fish every day. That big fish he brought earlier? He caught it!
If he sold those fish, he'd make thousands of yuan," Ai Bai said excitedly.
Hearing Ai Bai praise him, Xiao Wanwan looked surprised because her dad also fishes but never mentioned making money from it.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Fishing costs a lot too, and I don't sell the fish I catch. I give them all away to friends," Xiang Ye said a little embarrassed. Just as he finished, Ai Bai stepped on his foot…
